Description
ADAMs are transmembrane metalloproteases that control cell behavior by cleaving both cell adhesion and signaling molecules. The cytoplasmic domain of ADAMs can regulate the proteolytic activity by controlling the subcellular localization and/or the activation of the protease domain. Here we show that the cytoplasmic domain of ADAM13 is cleaved and translocates into the nucleus. Preventing this translocation renders the protein incapable of promoting cranial neural crest (CNC) cell migration in vivo, without affecting its proteolytic activity. In addition, the cytoplasmic domain of ADAM13 regulates the expression of multiple genes in the CNC. This study shows that the cytoplasmic domain of ADAM metalloproteases can perform essential functions in the nucleus of cells and may contribute substantially to the overall function of the protein.

Description
Total RNA samples from Vax2 knockout mouse eyes (at least two biological replicates) were profiled by gene expression. As control we used total RNA from wild type eyes. The analysis was carried out at five different developmental stages: E10.5, E12.5, E16.5, P8, and P60.

Description
Enzalutamide (formerly MDV3100 and available commercially as Xtandi), a novel androgen receptor (AR) signaling inhibitor, blocks the growth of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) in cellular model systems and was shown in a clinical study to increase survival in patients with metastatic CRPC. Enzalutamide inhibits multiple steps of AR signaling: (1) binding of androgens to AR, (2) AR nuclear translocation, and (3) association of AR with DNA.

Enzalutamide, an androgen receptor signaling inhibitor, induces tumor regression in a mouse model of castration-resistant prostate cancer.

- Affymetrix Citrus Genome Array (citrus)
Description
The goal of the microarray experiment was to identify genes that were differentially expressed in NAD-treated and water-treated sweet orange leaf tissues. Results indicated that, compared with the water treatment, the NAD tretament triggered profound transcriptome changes in the citrus leaves, with about 1,200 genes being up-regulated or down-regulated by twofold or more.

Description
Cellular identity is determined by its gene expression programs. The ability of the cell to change its identity and produce cell types outside its lineage is achieved by the activity of transcription controllers capable of reprogramming differentiation gene networks. The synovial sarcoma associated protein, SYT-SSX2, reprograms myogenic progenitors and human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) by dictating their commitment to a pro-neural lineage. It fulfills this function by directly targeting an extensive array of neural-specific genes as well as genes of developmental pathway mediators. Concomitantly, the ability of both myoblasts and BMMSCs to differentiate into their normal myogenic and adipogenic lineages was compromised. Synovial sarcoma is believed to arise in mesenchymal stem cells where formation of the t(X;18) translocation product, SYT-SSX, constitutes the primary event in the cancer. SYT-SSX is therefore believed to initiate tumorigenesis in its target stem cell. The data presented here allow a glimpse at the initial events that likely occur when SYT-SSX2 is first expressed and its dominant function in subverting the nuclear program of the stem cell, leading to its aberrant differentiation, as a first step toward transformation. In addition, we identified the fibroblast growth factor receptor gene, Fgfr2, as one occupied and upregulated by SYT-SSX2. Knockdown of FGFR2 in both BMMSCs and synovial sarcoma cells abrogated their growth and attenuated their neural phenotype. These results support the notion that the SYT-SSX2 nuclear function and differentiation effects are conserved throughout sarcoma development and are required for its maintenance beyond the initial phase. They also provide the stem cell regulator, FGFR2 as a promising candidate target for future synovial sarcoma therapy.

Description
Synovial sarcoma is a rare malignancy characterized by the presence of a specific chromosomal translocation t(X;18) that results in the formation of a fusion protein SYT-SSX. Because it is believed that synovial sarcoma arises from mesenchymal stem or progenitor cells, we wanted to determine the changes in gene expression caused by SYT-SSX2 in untransformed mesenchymal progenitor cells - murine C2C12 myoblasts in this experiment.

Description
Chronic myeloid leukemia is a disease originated at the level of hematopoietic stem cell, characterized by the abnormal overproduction and accumulation, both in blood and bone marrow, of myeloid cells. Treatment options include tyrosine kinase inhibitors that inhibit BCR-ABL activity, however some patients develop resistance to these drugs and has been asociated to the stem cells

Illumina Genome Analyzer II
Description
During normal or pathological epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, epithelium-specific gene expression is shut down, with the DNA-binding factor ZEB1 acting as a master suppressor of epithelial identity. Here, we show that ZEB1 occupies primate-specific tandem repeats (TRs) harboring dozens of copies of its DNA-binding motif and located within genomic loci relevant for epithelial identity. Deletion of one such repeat in a quasi-mesenchymal human cancer cell line induced the reacquisition of epithelial features and phenocopied the effects of ZEB1 gene deletion. Since ZEB1 binds clustered motifs in a non-cooperative manner, changes in its nuclear concentration enable graded adjustments of TR occupancy, thus fine-tuning repression level. In addition, high motif density in TRs allows ZEB1 binding (and shutdown of epithelial programs) despite differences in chromatin organization and accessibility among epithelial cell types. Overall design: Total RNA from human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell lines was processed for multiparallel sequencing. Experiments were carried out in genome edited clonal MiaPaCa2 cells (3 ZEB1-deleted CRISPR-Cas9 clones and 3 wt clones).
